'Six Characters in Search of an Author'
Will Surprise Audiences, Says Morgan
Surprised audiences at the
University Theater's produc
tion of Luigi Pirandello's "Six
Characters in Search of an
Author" may leave the the
ater wondering who they are,
according to Dr. William Mor
gan, director of the play which
opens Wednesday evening in
the Howell Theater.
"The author asks, 'who are
you?'," Dr. Morgan said.
Conpared to the reality of
a fictional character like Don
Juan, who never changes,
how consistant is a real hu
man being, who changes from
day to day, hour to hour?
Italian Plarrlght
Dr. Morgan revealed that
Pirandello, modern Italian
playwright, had won the No
ble Prize r ixeMiure tor one
of his plays.
When audiences come into
the theater they will see the
stage not set &H, except
for a rehearsal that is about
to take place in an Italian
provincial theater.
Actors drift in, stage hands
loaf about at thetr routine
chores, the director enters

gram, which was started at
the University three years
ago, a cadet must complete
71 hours of instruction.
Thirty-six of the hours con
sist of flight training, with
the Cadets flying both solo
and dual flights. The remain
der of the time is spent in
ground training.
Once the instruction has
been completed, the cadet
mill receive his full wings.
and begins a routine rehear

Career Should Be
Main Motivation Now
A career should be the mo-) Youngsters from the mid-
I die" class represent about 30
young adult, said L. W. Hurl
but, chairman of the agricul

ment Hurlbut emphasized the
careers at the Pacific North
west section of the Ameri-
per cent of the children and
only about 25 per cent of

Studies of these predic

Study of Higher Education,
show that less than three per

made, Hurlbut said, "About
25 per cent of the youth plan-
Engineers. He said one of the.
problems of career selection
is whether students should
make their choice in high
school or in college.
Any program planned to
motivate high school students
toward a particular field
requires a lot of planning,
he said. Career inspirations
have developed from fami
lies, teachers, books, maga
zines, science projects, sci
ence fairs and visits to labo
ratories, he said.
A study of those planning
college careers showed that
children of farmers and fac
tory workers fall below the
average in numbers planning
to go to college. The upper:
middle class groups rep- '
resent only about 10 percent
of the children but about 80
per cent of them attend col
lege, he said

ning for college aspire to go
into farm occupations.
Various studies indicated
that more than half of the
young people select Hheir vo
cations by the time they are
16, Hurlbut said. Subsequent
ly, two out of three of those
who attend -college change
vocations before they grad
uate. Hurlbut said the ma
jority of changes are due to
failures in one or more re
quired subjects.
In order to minimize the
number of college changes,
career counseling programs
should bolster the individual
to make commitments based
upon conscious decisions. Al
so counseling should be given
to those students who com
mit to an occupational role
by default, Hurlbut said.
Such decisions become In
creasing difficult when the
student has several depart
mental interests in his appli
cation and leaves it up to
the University to make one:
of his major decisions for
life. This is one of the rea
sons for changes in college
majors, Hurlbut concluded.

Council Tribunal
The Student Council Trib
unal committee has added a
non-voting member from out
side the Council, according to
Jim Samples.
Larry Frazier of the Law
College and a member of the
Student Tribunal last year,
has agreed to sit in on the
Council Tribunal committee
sessions as an adviser, Sam
ples said.
Would tou like to be a dean
for a day?
Students at Minneapolis,
Minn, were given this oppor
tunity. A universal stimulus
for wanting the office was "I
want to represent my frat
ernity sorority." Candidates
announced their platforms to
the student body.
Cadet Wounded
A cadet at College Station,
Tex., was wounded in the
hand recently as he was re
turning to his dormitory. He
staled that the sniper was lo
cated on the roof of one of
the campus buildings. No
trace of the sniper had been
found two days after the shoot
ing. A campaign has been
launched at Rutgers College
in New Brunswick, N.J. to
collect funds for Chilean stu
dents at the Universidad Au
stral. Last May 22 this col
lege was among the damaged
areas of the earthquake. Can-
nisters have been placed in
several buildings and a col
lection was to be made at
the football stadium.
Staff Resigns
The Senior Editorial Board
and staff of The Daily Cali
fornian at Berkeley staged a
mass resignation last week,
following a meeting of the Ex
ecutive Committee to discuss
revision of the editorial staffs
by-laws.

grounds tnat the present by
laws are satisfactory for a
student newspaper "respon
sible to standards of journal
istic ethics insuring the best
service to the entire Univer
sity community."
ATO Combo Will

sored by Associated Women
Students, the organization will
provide social functions for
these women besides helping
them to be able to more fully
participate in campus acti
vities. Can the cheating prblem
be overcome? ,
At Iowa State the Interfra
ternity Council and the Pan
hellenic Council have decided
to take a firm stand on the
problem and to take action
against it.
One suggestion was that
house test files be opened to
the administration "in order
to dispell any suspicion on the
part of the faculty or the gen
eral public."
Twenty-two candidates vied
